Forever Proud To Be Suplada [Proud To Be Suplada: Book 2]

Suplada 43

~Ana~

It's gonna be so bad for me pero kakayanin ko toh. I packed all of my stuff at iniwan ang phone ko. Alam ko'ng hindi ko matitiis lahat ng tawag ni CJ and I'm gonna screw it up.

May plano na ko and I asked Amber for help. Alam ko'ng gagana yun. I know it will, at kelangan ko munang sumama sakanya.

I kissed Brooke for the last time. The court trial is in 3 weeks at feeling ko hindi ko sya kayang hindi makita for that long.

Lumabas na ko at pumasok sa sasakyan ni Richard. "Richard, pwede bang dumaan ako kela mom at dad? I don't know it you're aware of what happened pero--"

"Yeah, I know. I'll drop you off pero sandali lang dahil baka magbago isip mo." sabi nya.

He dropped me off at hospital at sinilip ko si daddy. I talked to my mom about all of it at naiintindihan nya lahat ng gagawin ko. Too bad, CJ won't.

"Look out after them for me. Sandali lang naman to." sabi ko sakanya. I know I was immature before at wala akong pakialam sa mangyayari. I just realized my parents won't be here forever, so as CJ. I'll do everything to keep them.

Dumaan rin kami sa isang book store dahil may bibilhin si Richard for his work. "Baka tumakas ka lang pag sumama ka pababa."

"And then what? Ipapakulong mo si CJ? No thanks." sabi ko at bumaba. I remember nung una kong dinala si Brooke dito to get her school supplies.

Dahil wala rin naman akong mabibili, pinag tripan ko nalang yung scratch paper. 'CJ/Brooke ♥/

"Ana, tara na." sabi ni Richard. "Malayo pa yung byahe."

He started to drive. Natulog nalang ako at pagising gising. Bawat ipipikit ko yung mata ko, I see my family. I see Brooke being the most affected one here.

After hours and hours, dumating rin kami. I saw a sign that said 'Laoag' and realized how far I was from Manila.

Dinala nya ko sa isang kwarto at dun nilagay ang mga gamit namin. "Richard, iba nalang yung kwarto ko."

"I know you're going to say that. Pero no, you're my wife and my property. You share the same roof, room, and bed with me." matigas nyang sabi.

Damn you, sana mawala ka na sa mundong to. Kung hindi ko lang mahal si CJ, I would've screamed every curse from your head to toe.

Days came by, wala akong cellphone, wala ring signal, walang kahit ano. I go to groceries, cook for him, clean the house. Every basic wife would do to their husband.

I was so disgusted everytime he touches me. There was this one time na he wanted to have 'it' with me pero I said no.

"I don't want to, Richard." sabi ko at inalis ang kamay nya. Pero binalik nya at hinigpitan pa. He held my arm so tight. "Hindi ba, asawa mo ko, why do you keep on hurting me?"

"You're damn right! Why do you keep on hurting me? You married me pero you keep on insulting me." sabi nya at tinulak ako. My back hit the edge of the chair.

Everynight I go to shower, I see bruises and wounds that he caused pero lahat tinitiis ko. I'm at the point of life where I realized I was back in being Liyana. Not the sassy bitch Ana.

There was a time na pagod ako dahil galing akong grocery and my legs hurt so bad. I needed to cook for the both of us kaya tiniis ko.

I tasted it at walang lasa. I can see it in his face that he wasn't satisfied. "Wala ka na ngang kwenta pati luto mo wala na rin, damn it." sabi nya at binalibag ang pinggan sa sink.

Screw him, sya ang magutom bahala sya.

There were so many times I wanted to cry pero I had to portray the role of the strong, full of pride Ana.

After weeks, dumating ang araw ng court trial. Kami lang dapat ang maghaharap ni Richard dun pero I'm 101% sure na dadating si CJ because he got a schedule.

Maaga kaming nag byahe dahil traffic at nag stay muna sa budget hotel.

After hours, pumunta kami sa court at nakakapag taka na sya lang ang kinuhanan ng statement that day eh hindi pa naman ako kinuhanan ng statement before.

I was more than sure na he paid a lot for this court. For the first one, I let it slide. Natapos ang trial within 2 hours na hindi ako tumayo.

Pagkalabas ko, may humablot
saakin and I knew it was him. Hindi ko Pa sya nakikita, but I could smell his perfume.

He didn't do anything but hugged me. I didn't talk, I didn't move. Isang maling galaw ko lang, lahat ng pagtitiis ko kay Richard mawala.

I might end up choosing him again.
